I got both 6000 and 6000D..

D uses ATI x300. If its regular 6k.. its just intel graphics.. really bad... the x300 can bearly do CS:Source.. my x300 had 128mb

i really doubt it. is this going to be at low settings or what?

 

[beany323]

thanks for the replies...

that is what i am thinking also. weak vc, and would need to use low settings. dont feel like spending, 1500 bucks on a laptop just so i could play for a hour here or there..

thanks.

I really doubt it. If it does, it'll likely play poorly.

The only thing I would be aware of is that you load the USB drivers before hooking in your Cappuccino Machine via the USB ports!!

Other than that your good to go!!

Laptops in general don't make for very good gaming rigs.

World of Warcraft should be fine. Any first person shooter in the last 2 years... probably not such a great experience without turning down details and lowering the resolution.
